Rig has worked fine for a year, i paused a game, came back to find blue screen with exceptional error showing. i have 2 opticals on ide2, 160g ide hdd on ide1 but also 2 x 80g sata hdd. Now the comp wont startup because XP is on one of the sata drives and none of the sata drives are being recognised anymore. Swapped sata hdd to spare m/c with their cables etc they are seen fine, Been into BIOS, settings are set to sata enabled ok, Cleared the CMOS and checked settings again, none of the four sata sockets seem to be working. Its been suggested i should flash an updated BIOS, is that a likely solution?
